I am continuing to work on a character called Mother Martha.
(With hats off to Tony Randal, Jonathan Winters, Flip Wilson..and others that played female characters)

What effects can you think of with stockings.

1. Stockings to cane
2. Color changing stockings
3. ????

Be safe, well and creative in 06.

Gee, Harris, most of what comes to mind is nearly ABnormal . . .

I'm not at home right now, but IIRC, Henning Nelms had a 20th Century Silk routine that ended up with the assistant's stocking between the two silks (kind of a Bra Trick, but slightly classier).

I'm also thinking it would be funny to use the stocking to tie someone up, as with a rope tie or some such . . .

. . . or pull the stocking over your head for some trick with borrowed money (as if you were a bank robber).

Vague, I know. That's all I've got right now.

Cut and restored ala hindu turban... color changing... knot routine... stretching (I have a lady's nylon stocking that is over six feet in length, don't know where I got it but it plays very funny).

Stocking thru neck. Same as ribbon/rope thru neck.
Take a walk through Rice's.

Manuel Muerte has a closeup routine, Cassanova's something or other. Don't remember the entire name.

Or do stocking thur poll or even a person.

Love the ideas.

Now for some "reel magic".
